In her mind, it would be fine if she simply avoided the merchant. She did the same in the palace as well. Moreover, Lou would spend most of the time with Cane.

"He is a sorcerer, just like what you said." And he didn't want Lou to be any more interested in Iris than he already was.

"Because I want him to do something for the tunnel."

"Magic devices?" Iris guessed and Cane nodded. She seemed to understand what he had planned. "It will help the people, and there wouldn't be many deaths while they were working there."
